Who is to Blame in a Taxi Accident
Vehicles used and operated to provide services to the public are considered common carriers. Trains and taxis are examples of common carriers, which offer its services to the public by transporting them or their goods from one place to another. In order to operate, common carriers must first obtain a license from the state and adhere to regulations and policies imposed by law.
All vehicles are expected by the state to exercise care and caution while on the road. But unlike personal vehicles which are only required to observe ordinary diligence while in transit, common carriers are obliged by the state to observe extraordinary diligence or utmost degree of care and diligence while transporting their passengers and goods. Naturally, they must employ higher degree of care because their duty involves public policy.
Furthermore, when ordinary vehicles get involve on road accidents, the parties must first prove the negligence of the other party, or their non-participation thereto. On the other hand, common carriers are presumed by law to have acted negligently whenever they take part therein. The reason for this presumption is the so-called Contract of Carriage. Whenever a passenger or a shipper agrees to avail the services of a common carrier, there creates a special contract between them, which obligates the latter to transport the goods and passenger safely from one point to the other.
But this presumption is subject to the following exceptions:
1. Fortuitous causes or acts which are inevitable and outside the control of the parties
2. Acts of Public Enemies
3. Acts of the Passenger
4. Defective goods
In addition, Common Carrier operators are required by State Law to possess professional driver’s licenses in order to ensure the safety of the goods and the passengers. Yet, a large number of operators still do not observe proper traffic rules and regulations.
Being a major urban center, Taxicabs are common carriers being used in Los Angeles, California today. Because the city has a large number of inhabitants, L.A. streets are swamped with taxis and other vehicles.
However, due to the city’s large population, heavy traffic and road conditions, accidents caused by taxicabs are highly probable.
Whenever an accident occurs, especially if it involves a taxi or common carrier, it is important to discuss it with a Taxi Accident Lawyer. An attorney who handles Taxi Accidents would be able to help you determine which party to the accident is at fault and who to collect damages from.
Depending on the circumstances of the case, it may be one, some or all of the following:
1. The Common Carrier Owners – are presumed liable because they are expected to exercise extra-ordinary diligence in choosing their employees and in maintaining their carriers. However, they may present evidence to the contrary.
2. The Common Carrier Operators – are presumed liable because under the Contract of Carriage, they must transport the goods and passengers to their place of destination safely and unharmed. They may also present evidence in their favor.
3. The Passenger – may be liable if his action or omission is the proximate cause of the accident. His negligence may be total or contributory.
4. The Shipper – may be liable if due to his action or omission, the goods are damaged while being transported by the common carrier. His negligence may be total or contributory.
5. The Pedestrian – may be liable if due to his disregard of pedestrian rules, the taxi got involved in an accident. His negligence may be total or contributory.
6. The other vehicle – may be liable if it can be shown that his action or omission caused the accident. His negligence may be total or contributory.

Automobile Accidents Become Ever-Increasing
With the ever-increasing number of motor vehicles on the roads today, it is no surprise to find that car, motorcycle and truck accidents are a leading cause of personal injury. It has often been said that individuals are more at risk for becoming injured while driving rather than flying, and as their are more individuals on the road each year, this appears to quickly becoming the dangerous truth.
Many of these accidents could have been prevented if traffic laws and common sense had been observed. Drivers who cause accidents — while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, by driving recklessly, falling asleep at the wheel, talking on a cell phone, or otherwise being distracted — can be held liable.
Automobile accident cases can range from accidents involving modest injuries to those in which death and catastrophic injuries are the result. Cases may also involve suing the client’s own insurance company or uninsured and underinsured motorists — when the responsible party either has no insurance or not enough insurance to pay for the damages caused.
Often, the most devastating injuries occur when trucks are involved in an accident. It is important for attorneys to be knowledgeable of state and federal regulations governing the conduct of truck drivers, as well as the condition of their vehicles.
Automobile and truck accident cases also may involve other complex issues including dangerous highway design, dangerous design of an automobile or truck, and liquor liability claims against bars that serve drivers to the point of intoxication. These cases may involve multiple defendants including state and local governments, a state’s department of transportation, and automobile manufacturers.
Liquor Liability and Automobile Accidents
Liquor liability involves bodily injury or personal damage in which a person or business can be held responsible for causing or contributing to the intoxication of a person; furnishing alcoholic beverages to a person under the legal drinking age or under the influence of alcohol; or violating any statute, ordinance, or regulation relating to the sale, distribution, or use of alcoholic beverages.
As many automobile accidents involve the use or misuse of alcohol, liquor liability holds those parties who have provided alcohol to those already intoxicated or those under the legal drinking age responsible for their actions.
If you have been involved in an automobile accident and have suffered injury, you may have a legal case. To learn more about automobile accidents and liquor liability, or to protect yourself from these, it is advisable to speak with an experienced law firm.

It’s a long cold winter, but it doesn’t have to be boring, too. Beat the blahs with a warm winter party. It’s a perfect time to reconnect with friends and have fun. Or maybe you’re already planning an event such as an anniversary or sweet 16 celebration. If you’re looking for inspiration for a big occasion in January or February or just a casual get together, here are sixteen ideas to get you started.
1. If you’re having trouble finding a great winter party invitation, then look for a company that can customize one of their Christmas invitations or cards that is filled with snowflakes, snow, or a snowman. Ask them to eliminate the holiday aspect of it and make it just a winter theme.
2. Decorate with tons of white and accents of silver and icy blue. Use fabrics like chiffon, gossamer and other shears to create a winter fantasy feel.
3. Scented candles can enhance the atmosphere of a winter party. Try scents like evergreen, hot cocoa or apple pie.
4. Do you own a sled? Clean it up and use it as a decoration or even on top of the table to hold platters of food.
5. Make a garland of mittens. Attach every pair your family owns to a ribbon and hang it across the room. If you don’t have enough gloves, you can pick up some extras at the dollar store.
6. Raid your box of Christmas decorations in the attic for your winter theme party. Snowflake ornaments, white twinkling lights, silver garland, plastic icicles and snowmen can work both at Christmas and at your party in January or February.
7. Have a fondue party. When your guests gather around the fondue pot to dip their bread cubes into the warm cheese sauce, the conversations will flow. Plus, since they’re doing their own cooking with the sauces you prepared ahead of time, you’ll have a chance to join in the fun, instead of being stuck in the kitchen.
8. Cook up your famous chili recipe. Nothing warms your guests more than your homemade chili, French onion soup or beef stew. A winter party is a great time to serve those stick to your ribs, comfort foods.
9. Feature gourmet hot chocolates in a variety of flavors. Don’t forget the whipped cream and marshmallows!
10. Make your own ice sculpture. You can buy inexpensive reusable molds on the internet in a variety of shapes. Simply fill the mold about 90 percent with distilled water, freeze for 48 hours and unmold.
11. Winter party favors can be anything with a snowflake motif. How about magnets with a snowflake background and personalized message like, “Your friendship warms the coldest winter – Jane and Barry Parker”? A quick online search and you’ll find lots of products that can be customized with your words and even a photo.
12. Plan your winter party around a seasonal activity such as sledding or ice skating.
13. If you don’t want to remind your guest of the cold, ice and snow, why not have a luau or Caribbean theme? Borrow some CD’s from the library of Hawaiian or reggae music. Decorate with fake palm trees, seashells and flowers. Blend some coconut drinks. Break up the winter by going tropical and your guests are sure to think your party is hot.
14. Build your party around a holiday or event. Have a Valentine’s Day party or a Super Bowl bash. Turn President’s Day, Groundhog Day or Chinese New Year into a fun get together. Check the internet for obscure special days to celebrate like Elvis’ birthday on January 8th, Winnie the Pooh day on January 18th or National Gum Drop Day on February 15th. Plan a party to watch the Grammy’s or the Academy Awards. And don’t forget Mardi Gras!
15. Throw an ugly sweater party. Invite your guests to wear their most hideous winter woolen-wear. It might be a gift they received from a well-meaning relative during the holidays. Or it could be a 20 year old impulse buy hanging in the back of their closet with the tags still attached. Whoever makes it to the top of the worst dressed list, wins a prize.
16. Consider including a “snow date” on your invitations. If you live in an area that gets a lot of bad winter weather, you might want to add an alternate date for the party, in the event that the forecast is for slippery roads. Explain that you will call them before the party to change the date. If you decide to go this route, make sure you plan your menu around make-ahead foods that you freeze. In the event that the party is postponed, you won’t have to buy or make new party food.
So send out those invitations and get ready for a great winter party. Your guests will be thrilled that you planned something fun and memorable to break up the cold weather blues.
